Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. Linux is explicitly stated as unsupported for Azure Backup of SQL Server in Azure VMs. All supported operating systems listed are Windows Server versions, and configuration instructions reference Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell) without Linux alternatives. The backup can only be configured via the Azure portal or PowerShell, with CLI support explicitly absent. There are no examples, instructions, or guidance for Linux users, and Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively and first.
Recommendations
- Clearly state Linux support roadmap or alternatives for Linux SQL Server workloads.
- If possible, add support for Azure CLI or cross-platform tools for backup configuration.
- Provide parity in documentation for Linux environments, including examples and troubleshooting steps.
- Mention alternative backup strategies for Linux users, or link to relevant documentation.
- Consider adding a comparison table for Windows vs. Linux support to clarify limitations.
